Hence, this first vision and the counsel it contains are for the Lord's day, from 1914 onward, this timing is supported by the fact, that, later in Revelation, the record describes the execution of God's true righteous judgments-events in which the Lord Jesus plays an outstanding part. (Revelation 11:18; 16:15; 17:1; 19:2, 11) If the fulfillment of the first vision began in 1914, when does it end? As the messages themselves show, the organization addressed in God's congregation of anointed ones on earth. The fulfillment of this vision ends, then, when the last faithful member of that anointed congregation dies and is raised to heavenly life. Nevertheless, the Lord's day, with blessings to the earthly sheep, continues till the end of Jesus Christ's Millennial Rule. - JOHN 10:16; REVELATION 20:4, 5.
